Default Is that wise?

Body exhumed in fight against flu


The body of an aristocrat who died nearly 90 years ago has been exhumed in the hope that it will help scientists combat a future flu pandemic.
Yorkshire landowner Sir Mark Sykes died in France in 1919 from Spanish flu. Sir Mark was buried in a lead coffin which scientists hope may have helped preserve the virus.

Not what I call a smart move.
